Are whole beans in bulk just a thing of the past? I don't get out much. As a kid a few of the grocery stores around had a huge selection of beans. I don't know of anywhere I can go to buy bulk beans anymore. School me please. Went to Meijer after getting my new grinder in September and there's...

This is another thing I'm committed to, not this but growing my hair out. My grandfather and an uncle had long hair. I thought it was the coolest thing when I was young. Told myself once in my life I'd try long hair. So prepping for my midlife crisis and to check a bucket list item I've had mine...

Nice!!!!

A few slices of that uncured belly with a few eggs on top is my favorite part of butcher day. I've not killed to many old breed hogs. The fat content is awesome. Mouth watering. That'd make some killer pie crust.

I love your table. What live weight do you think? I like the marbling in the chops and the amount of backfat.

18* no wind feels like a freaking heat wave!!!!!!

Had I brain teaser today, I had a section of my main cold water supply pipe frozen when I woke up in a hollow uninsulated raised floor above a slab that I didn't think would get could enough to freeze. Thawed it out but as soon as the pressure tank emptied no water. All the pipes were thawed. I...

Frick, we got 20mph winds steady tonight with 40-45mph wind guests tonight at least what I'm hearing into tomorrow morning. It will seem like all the plowing has been for nothing, good luck Phil be safe its going to get shitty tonight.

The last winter we had like this with prolonged freeze(35 days in a row below 32)with good snowfall amounts , it turned around and reached 80 degrees in March. We had a crazy good walleye spawn and morel mushrooms were abundant, they were coming up in southern Michigan in March that...

I can't tell how much we got due to wind. The four wheeler frame is dragging snow. Can still drive the truck through the field in no risk of getting hung up for now but some drifts are building. Drove around the block it's not great out. Shoveled out our parking area and walk ways. It's going to...

I've watched two batman movies with the kids had 4 cups of espresso six eggs four thin sausage patties and three brownies so far, I'm still in my slippers. The dogs are the only ones to go outside yet. I've been down way to many Internet rabbit holes today, I need to be done with Facebook for...

My wife and I got heated coats for Christmas. I must say this thing is wonderful. Game changer for mobility vs the bulk traditional gear I used to wear. Id take this thing over a Carhartt any day without it battery heat. I wear it alone with a sweatshirt while working in these temps and it's all...

We are at the most snow for the season currently. This one will actually be nice since it's going to happen during daylight instead of waking up to all of it at once. Very pretty out. We are at a 12mph wind and it's not supposed to get any higher until Tuesday which will make this way less...

We chop all that off around here.
